Guys what do you think 77/100

Border line A i'd say, going to be high grade boundaries.

Does anyone know what question 18(a) was? It was one of the fraction questions, or before them, as the answer after is 2 4/5. The answer for 18(a) is 7/5, if that helps.

Cheers. x

For -a +3b could you also have -3b+a

-a + 3b is different to -3b + a so no

For the 'why is asking his maths class bad' question i put something like ' they are not a good Representative, they are all same age.' would i get full marks if not some (1 or 2).

Hey, if anybody is willing to contribute the answers, and preferably the questions, then I shall set up a mark scheme for you all. Thanks in advance!

Can people please attach question numbers to their answers? Method would be appreciated.

This will be updated as I go along.

Am I right in saying that questions 8,9 and 12 are missing from this mark scheme?

Generally what are the guesses for the grade boundries? 2015- you needed 125 from both papers for an A in 2014- it was 133 for an A! Was this paper harder than 2015?

77 is too much considering you only needed 125 for both papers for an A in total. Id say 73 is an A
